From Hidden to Well-Known: These Are Vienna's Most Beautiful Outdoor Cafés
As part of the traditional summer festival of the Vienna tourism industry, which was celebrated this year at the Allianz Stadium in Hütteldorf, the awarding of the industry prizes "Goldener Schani" and "Goldene Jetti" for the most beautiful outdoor dining areas and most impressive leisure opportunities in Vienna took place.
Visitor Votes Given More Weight
This year, it was a close race among the nominees. After a public online voting, a jury from business, administration, design, and architecture determined the winners from the top-ranked. "We changed the weighting a bit this year and gave more value to the votes of the guests, because ultimately it is the visitors who decide whether an outdoor dining area is successful," said Dominic Schmid, chairman of the tourism and leisure industry division in the Vienna Chamber of Commerce.
Hidden Gems and the Best Rooftops in Vienna
The most beautiful outdoor dining areas were determined in three categories. The first place in the classic outdoor dining areas goes to "El Gaucho am Rochusmarkt" in the third district. The "In the Green" category brings a culinary delicacy into the spotlight with "Gugumucks Gartenbar" in the Vienna Snail Manufactory (1100 Vienna). In the "Hidden Gems" category, a well-known name in the Vienna gastronomy scene prevailed: The "Amerlingbeisl" in Stiftgasse (1070 Vienna). And finally, in the "Above the Roofs" category, where the most popular rooftops in the city are chosen: "Chez Bernard", on the top floor of Hotel Motto, on Mariahilfer Straße (1060 Vienna).
The "Goldene Jetti" for Innovative Leisure Offers in Vienna
Furthermore, the second industry prize, the "Goldene Jetti", was awarded. Companies were honored for their innovative, creative, extraordinary, and successfully implemented concepts, products, events, or facilities that significantly and sustainably enrich Vienna's leisure offerings and thus the quality of life in Vienna. The prize is named after the Viennese original "Jetti Tant", who once took care of the children's leisure activities in families.
In the "Culture & Experience" category, fitting for this year's honorary year of the famous Viennese composer, the "Johann Strauss Museum – New Dimensions" prevailed. An innovative permanent exhibition dedicated to the work and life as well as the achievements of his family opened in the heart of the city. The museum offers not just a retrospective; it merges entertainment and information into a multimedia symphony.
Well-known and popular among young and old is also the winner in the "Body & Mind" category: The "Waldseilpark Kahlenberg" has established itself as a popular leisure hotspot in recent years, further enhancing the attractiveness of Kahlenberg.
